Describe it however you want. If you have a decent barber, they should understand you fine and work with you.
I've been shy, straight forward, and all manners of sides when asking for a haircut and the biggest issue has only been the occasional language barrier.

Once you're comfortable in a style it'll be easier to use different wording, depending on how you want your style. For example: you most certainly can ask for clipper sizes, like "no. 2 on sides", however if you don't know what you want from the top you could just ask them "a bit short but matching the sides, if you know what I mean?"

Some styles have different options, such as skin fades (usually medium or high here, indicating the point where the fade reaches on the side and back of the head). If you're unsure definitely do not be afraid of asking, if any barber has an issue with working with you they aren't the barbers you want as they're likely to rush the haircut regardless of what you say (in my experience), or only know limited styles/lack broader experience in hairdressing.

When I first saw The Lion King in the cinema, my best friend and I couldn't stop crying at the Mufasa scene.

We were probably taken to a colourful McDonalds, to be cheered up, however we did not use the play room as someone was having a birthday there.

If someone left their PC unattended, I'd quickly change all fonts to Comic Sans.

Some of us can't be trusted with such power. I would personally use invisibility to switch items in people's coat pockets. Keys always in the left? Well now they're in the right pocket!

Total anarchy.

Sounds like you've never had a lincolnshire sausage, or a nicely made shepherd's pie. Pies and pasties are often seasoned too.

It's a shame so many people don't get to experience flavourful British food, or go with stereotypes, since there's a bunch of really nice stuff.

I even have a book from the 1700s detailing the use of various herbs.

The REAL question is how much beans can I feed to a cat, and why does my house smell really bad?

This is a good point I didn't think of. It's possible that the answer is so obvious, that the only articles made about it would be jokes.

I thought this was fake, but I searched Google for "parachute effectiveness" and that satirical study is at the top, and literally every single link below it is a reference to that satirical study. I have scrolled for a good minute and found no genuine answer...

I just saw one in a local'ish shop of mine, for £4. It doesn't have any branding on it, sorry!

I've bought a camping stool recently. It folds up and small enough to put in a backpack.

I have twisted discs and find it difficult sometimes to find a seat. Sucks. But man, I can't recommend camping stools enough! I love this thing.

I'm actually rather thankful for this entire drama, or rather my cats are.
I was 'this' close to forgetting some ham for their once in a while treat. Thanks, /c/vegan!
